Hi all,

Thank you very much for those of you who joined us for the conversation at Wikimania, in-person or virtually! 

We have uploaded the recording of the session to Commons. You can watch it here.

I have started a Meta-wiki page for public policy initiatives and projects for the ESEAP region. If you are involved or planning to be involved in one, feel free to populate the page here

Cheers,
Ramzy

Hi all,

A slight change of plan: we will have Rachel Arinii Judhistari, Wikimedia Foundation's Lead Public Policy Specialist for Asia, joining the roundtable conversation representing the Foundation. 

Looking forward to seeing you in a few hours!

Dear all,

Wikimedia communities in the East Asia, Southeast Asia, and the Pacific (ESEAP) region have different experiences and institutional capacity to navigate the changing waters of public policy, especially on those that may not be aligned or opposite to the mission and interests of the Wikimedia movement. The diverse legal, social, and political landscape of the region proved to be a unique challenge and opportunity at the same time. 

We invite you to join us in the roundtable conversation session "Passion and Perspectives: Policy Challenges and Opportunities for the Wikimedia Communities in the ESEAP" at this year's Wikimania to discuss the challenges, explore the opportunities together, and learn from each other. 

Featured speakers are Amanda Lawrence (Wikimedia Australia), Franziska Putz (Wikimedia Foundation), Reke Wang (Wikimedia Taiwan), Juan Bautista H. Alegre (Pilipinas Panorama Community). The session will be moderated by Ramzy Muliawan (Wikimedia Indonesia). 

Join us in-person at Suntec Center Room 325 on August 17, 2023, at 06:15 UTC/14:15 Singapore Standard Time, or through this Eventyay link if you're joining us virtually. 

Looking forward to seeing you there!

Cheers,
Ramzy
